A restaurant uses a 15-pound bag of flour in 4 days. Each day, the bag of flour gets lighter as more flour is used. How much does the average amount of flour in the bag change each day? (Round to the nearest hundredth.)(1 point)

To find the average amount of flour that changes each day, we need to divide the total amount of flour used (15 pounds) by the number of days (4 days).

15 pounds / 4 days = 3.75 pounds/day

Therefore, the average amount of flour in the bag changes by 3.75 pounds each day.
i put in 3.75 and it doesnt work
Apologies for the confusion. To find the average amount of flour that changes each day, we need to calculate the difference in the amount of flour between the beginning and end of each day.

Starting with a 15-pound bag of flour, after the first day, the bag will be 15 pounds - amount used on the first day. Similarly, after the second day, the bag will be (15 pounds - amount used on the first day) - amount used on the second day, and so on.

To find the average amount of flour that changes each day, we need to calculate the difference between the starting amount of flour (15 pounds) and the ending amount of flour on each day, and then divide by the number of days.

Let's say the amount of flour used on each day is 3 pounds, 4 pounds, 2 pounds, and 6 pounds.

Day 1: 15 pounds - 3 pounds = 12 pounds
Day 2: 12 pounds - 4 pounds = 8 pounds
Day 3: 8 pounds - 2 pounds = 6 pounds
Day 4: 6 pounds - 6 pounds = 0 pounds

The average amount of flour that changes each day is equal to the total change in flour divided by the number of days.

Total change in flour = (15 pounds - 0 pounds) = 15 pounds
Number of days = 4

Average amount of flour change per day = Total change in flour / Number of days = 15 pounds / 4 days ≈ 3.75 pounds/day

Therefore, the average amount of flour in the bag changes by approximately 3.75 pounds each day.
thanks for my GRADE IT WAS NEGATIVE BRO
Apologies for the confusion once again. Let me double-check the calculation.

The total amount of flour used is 15 pounds, and it is used over 4 days. To find the average amount of flour that changes each day, we divide the total amount of flour used by the number of days.

15 pounds / 4 days = 3.75 pounds/day

So, the average amount of flour in the bag changes by 3.75 pounds each day.

I apologize for any misunderstanding or confusion caused by my previous response. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

A squirrel has stored its acorns in a hole that is 45 feet from the ground in a tall tree. The squirrel starts on a perch 100 feet above the ground. The squirrel moves from the perch down to its stored acorns in 5.25 seconds. Interpret the quotient to describe the rate of change in the squirrel’s height above the ground. Give your answer to the nearest hundredth.(1 point)
